Friday afternoon

This morning my friend Marsha came over with a big bag from IHOP with eggs, pancakes, butter and syrup and we had a delicious breakfast. How nice to still be able to eat IHOP breakfast at home. She brings that for me almost every week and it is such a nice benefit... and I eat more.
My friend Jamie was over today making me a delicious lunch. She took Missy for a walk while I had my shower; she is wonderful to have around.
There is nothing like having friends hanging around and just have a comfort zone where you can talk about anything.
It is already Friday and because I have all these friends stopping by the week goes by so much faster. I love reading the comments from everyone, I read them all and I am going to try to keep up with this site once I get the hang of it.
Tomorrow I look forward to seeing Joe and Nancy, I have known them since I came to the US, 30 years of friend ship so I will have fun hanging out with them and have a wonderful time. Sunday is still open if anyone want to come up!
Love,
Christina

From Christina -

Hi everybody,



I am so overwhelmed by all the responses because in the beginning I didn't think people were in such a big need of knowing what's going on. But now I feel like I need to communicate instead of hiding secrets and I will try to make a comment everyday.

At first I had such a tough time admitting that I am in this position. But now that I see how much everyone cares about me I feel great. So now that I know that everyone is out there I will keep in contact.

By having all my family and friends visiting, my days go by much faster. It makes me forget where I actually am and it makes me feel happy inside. The visits make me feel good b/c I know that you care. I want to say thank you because of how much you care. All these visits mean so much to me because I know that I can be the person I am and talk about things in life - such as feelings, tastes, my thoughts, etc.

Please know that I keep track of all the comments...and the ones that aren't good I delete ;)



Time for me to sleep now. Until next time...



Love,



Christina
